THE AREA


The traditional Cretan village Kournas lies at the only freshwater lake of Crete only 4km from the beach of Georgioupolis. The lake lies in between mountains at 20m above sea level and is 22,5m deep at its deepest point. The fresh water lake is protected under Natura 2000 and offers shelter to turtles, ducks, eels and snakes. Water comes from mountain streams filling up the lake during winter months. Traditional tavernas and paddle boats offer the perfect setting for a relaxed day at the lake. The villa's prime location puts you just 60 seconds walk from the shoreline of Kournas Lake, Crete's only freshwater lake, where you can enjoy swimming and water activities. 

Several excellent tavernas and small shops are within easy 2-3 minute walking distance, offering authentic Cretan cuisine and daily necessities. 

The sandy beaches of Georgioupolis are just a short 8-minute drive away, while the cities of Chania and Rethymno are approximately 30 minutes by car in either direction.
